A variety of kitchen items become musical instruments in this 1890 sketch: "Fourth of July in the Kitchen." Click to enlarge , closeups below...
A bed warming pan , with fireplace tongs as the bow , becomes a cello.
A metal dish cover becomes a drum , and a spoon hitting a pot lid as a cymbal. A funnel is a horn.
A meat fork playing a bellows 'violin' , and a coffee grinder.
